About This Recipe

Jello, widely known as a hospital dessert, is made from gelatin derived by boiling the skin, bones, and connective tissue of cattle and fish. This means our bodies digest it easily — which is exactly why it is so commonly served in hospitals. Since the stomachs of patients recovering from surgery or in the healing phase cannot handle hard-to-digest foods, this dessert is offered as a gentle option. Because jello is easily digestible, its calories are readily absorbed by the body, helping patients meet their energy needs.

Jello, which falls into the category of clear liquids such as broth and fruit juice, helps speed up gastric acid secretion and renews the mucous lining of the stomach. It is also very rich in the amino acids glycine and proline. These amino acids are extremely important for skin health, hair health, and the immune system.

When something is both good for our health and a dessert, it always deserves a special place in our hearts. So let's curb those afternoon hunger pangs the healthy way — our Biscuit Jello Cup recipe is absolutely delicious. If you'd like to try something even fresher and lighter, our Strawberry Jello recipe is just right for you. Bon appétit!
